John Beargrease Dog Sled Marathon
We’re a proud Mile-Marker Sponsor of the race that will start in Two Harbors and also be headquartered in Two Harbors!
The John Beargrease “one of the most prestigious sled dog races” in the continental United States is here for you to see! Covering approximately four hundred miles, the route runs between Duluth and Grand Portage and traditionally is held annually during the last week of January. John Beargrease was an Anishinabe man whose commitment to delivering mail between Two Harbors and Grand Marais (in winter by dog sled) proved to be a vital lifeline to the outside world for area residents. John did indeed engage a bear! Learn about the Legend of John Beargrease – observe this amazing race!
